Toy Story’s Gaming History Gets a New Home With Retro Roundup! and Toy Story 3 Complete Edition
Arriving October 15, the two releases revisit different chapters of Pixar gaming, from 1990s platformers to the customizable world of Woody’s Roundup.
For many Disney fans, Woody and Buzz’s adventures continued long after the movie ended. They played out on a television connected to a Super Nintendo or PlayStation, or on a Game Boy screen during a road trip. This week, Atari and Digital Eclipse are bringing a substantial part of that gaming history to current hardware.
Toy Story: Retro Roundup! and Toy Story 3 Complete Edition are scheduled to launch Thursday, October 15, 2026. Both are coming to PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, Nintendo Switch and PC via Steam. Together, they offer two approaches to revisiting Pixar’s past: a collection of early games with archival extras, and a remaster of the 2010 adventure.
Retro Roundup! reaches back to the original Toy Story game and continues through Toy Story Racer. It also makes room for Flik and company with A Bug’s Life. The collection contains 11 console and handheld versions, making the specific lineup worth a look if you are hoping to revisit the edition you grew up with.

That mix is part of the appeal. The console and handheld releases let players see how the same characters were adapted to different hardware, while the inclusion of A Bug’s Life broadens the collection’s view of early Pixar games.
Digital Eclipse is also adding tools to help players revisit them. The announced features include rewind, Practice Mode, updated instructions and Rex’s Cheat Codes, with options such as unlimited lives and invincibility. These are useful features to look for if your memories of the original games include getting stuck on the same jump.
For fans interested in how Disney entertainment gets made, the archival material may be just as significant as the games. The collection includes development documents, vintage photographs and new interviews featuring Pixar’s Jason Katz, Disney and Pixar Games executive Luigi Priore, Traveller’s Tales founder Jon Burton and actor Jim Hanks. A music player brings together the included games’ soundtracks. The package gives these licensed adventures a place alongside the stories of the people who created them.
Toy Story 3 Complete Edition moves forward to a different era. It updates the 2010 game, with Woody, Buzz and Jessie playable in a Story Mode built around sequences inspired by the film. Each character has different abilities, and two players can team up locally.
Its other major component is Toy Box Mode, a sandbox set in the western world of Woody’s Roundup. Players take on missions, earn gold, customize buildings and change the appearance of the townsfolk. Local two-player co-op is available here, too. For fans drawn to the idea of making their own adventures with Pixar characters, that freedom is the central attraction of the game’s design.
The Complete Edition also brings previously restricted content into the new releases, including playable Emperor Zurg in Toy Box Mode and four additional Theme Packs. Atari advertises upgraded visuals and performance, including up to 4K resolution at 60 frames per second depending on the platform. Those specifications describe the publisher’s announced features; actual performance will depend on the version being played.
The pairing highlights how much a Disney game can encompass. Retro Roundup! puts an archive of earlier adaptations within reach, while Toy Story 3 Complete Edition returns to a game built partly around letting players arrange their own toy-filled world. For returning players, there is a chance to reconnect with a particular chapter of childhood. For younger fans, there is an opportunity to discover how Woody, Buzz and their friends lived beyond the films.
Atari currently lists U.S. digital prices of $29.99 for Toy Story: Retro Roundup! and $24.99 for Toy Story 3 Complete Edition. A two-game double pack is also offered. Readers can find the releases and platform options through Atari’s official Toy Story hub.
